Homebrew leafs
Im looking to make up some lifted leaf springs for my buddies Cherokee, needing to get 6 inches, don't wanna use any blocks, I was told older chevy springs underneath an xJ main leaf, (Obviously cut them to length) I know it can be done just wanted to see what combinations any of you guys have used. Doesn't really matter if there stiff because they are only gonna be used for acouple until I go to links and sell him mine.

Do a search on " bastard packs "
Most people get about 3-4 inches lift with them
And if you do not wanna use blocks
There is always longer shackles that can
give you the extra couple inches

I did a whole set of s10's and they gave me under 3"
I also did a whole set of late 90's dakota and that gave me just over 3"
If you get two sets of either and interleave them, you should probably be able to get 6" Just experiment with em a little
